according to this site: http://www.guitardaterproject.org the serial number makes its a 1989 made in korea (factory unknown)
looks in great nick for a guitar thats almost 20 years old, kind of like a played in classic :) emailed the seller and the body is pretty much perfect, normal fret wear with no snagging of buzzing. gold hardware is well faded, but tbh i think it looks better that way.
seems like a bargin to me (provided it doesnt get to many bids of course), should i go for it ?
This is my signature. Fear it.
should i go for it ?
Yes!
